how to gain access to google tv apps to use with other devices. is there even a point - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

i am looking for the Airtight app that will let me stream content from IOS device to my MK802 Android 4.0 USB stick that i have hooked up to my TV. since it is a GTV native app, i cannot get it from the play store on either my galaxy note or my allwinner 10 device spoofing a xoom tablet.
since iGTV is basically just like any other android device my MK802 should be able to run it. is there a way to spoof the play store to get the app, or is there anything i can do to get it ?

Any progress on this? I would also like to use the GTV UI on another Android device...

[Q] Installing & Running Android TV apps on a tablet?

I have a Nvidia Shield Tablet running Android 5.0. This tablet has HDMI so I think it would be useful if I could run some of the apps designed for Android TV on it.
I was able to extract the APKs from the Nexus Player factory image. LeanbackLauncher, LeanbackKeyboard, etc. None will install properly on the tablet though. Install fails without any details. Eventually it would also be nice to get the Netflix TV app (com.netflix.ninja) too.
Has anybody had success doing this, or ideas on how to accomplish it?

[MOD] REQUEST : Google Chromecast receiver app + S4 = portable Chromecast receiver?!

So I've discovered that the Google "Cast Receiver" app for the Nexus Player (APK download) installs fine on my S4 running Android 4.4.4 AOSP (PAC-ROM) but doesn't seem to actually DO anything, so was wondering if someone might be able to get it working, as using our S4s (and perhaps other devices like tablets) as Chromecast receivers / Nexus Players would be handy in many situations, e.g. hotels (play from phone to tablet plugged into hotel TV), development/demos (demonstrate on one device, mirror to another), etc.
Alas I don't know anything about modding Android apps myself, but perhaps someone here might fancy giving it a go...?

Any support for Hisense TV's yet?

I am looking for support for to start support for Hisense TV's
Mine Specifics are; Android 4.2.2,Original Rom Updated.
Hisense TV model; 55K680GW
TV User Manual;
http://hisense-canada.com/support/manuals/55K600GW_can_M_en_man.pdf
The TV is suppose to be a "SmartTV" everything that seems to make it a smart TV does not work. Can't pair to YouTube, can't stream my tablet or phone "mirroring" or "stream". YouTube app does not work, only play's a second of any video and then stops, will not do anything else. Virtually no software in Google apps. Bluetooth wont pair. WiFi Direct doesnt work. Can really do anything that a non-smarttv can do. Networking resources seem to work however, it will most media files from my computers on the network, but otherwise not all are supported. For a Android "SmartTV" it seems to be really lacking in the "smartness".
Is there any support, or planned to be any support for this TV?

Can't run Android TV apps (WWE Network)

Hi, so I have a Shield Tablet (stock, not rooted) and want to watch WWE Network from outside the US, but the WWE Android app requires GPS verification that though I can fake, but the process takes very very long every time I select another video to watch and for some reason the streaming quality is always in SD.
There is a WWE Network app on Google Play for Android TV that doesn't have the GPS verification, but I can't download it with a non-Android TV device. So I grabbed it somewhere else and sideloaded it to my tablet. It did install, but I can't open it. The "Open" text in the window that comes up after sideloading an apk is greyed out or missing (can't remember anymore), and the app is nowhere to be found besides in the app management settings.
I mean, why can't I run the app? Afaik Android TV is a restricted version of the full Android, so the full Android should be able to run Android TV apps, right?. Is there a hack that lets me run Android TV apps on my tablet? Can I perhaps install Android TV on my tablet if nothing else works?
Appreciate any help. Thanks!
Anyone please?

Turning Linux based smart TV into Android TV?

I would like to start off by saying I've looked around for a few hours on the internet trying to find something to help me get an answer to this. I've decided to ask the community to shine some light on this for me. Any answers would be grateful and very appreciated.
I have a Hisense 4K 50 Inch TV I bought it from Walmart. The model number is 50H7GB. I've had the tv over a year and it runs a Linux based os called "Opera TV" The current os lacks the most decent apps and the app store has nothing thrilling at all. I was wondering if it is possible to put Android TV os on this Hisense tv somehow? If it can be done, what steps must I take to do so?
